The timing and techniques for massaging treated areas after a plastic surgery procedure can vary depending on the specific procedure performed. It is crucial to consult with your plastic surgeon, who will provide personalized instructions tailored to your surgery. In general, if applicable, gentle massaging techniques may be recommended after an appropriate healing period to help optimize results by promoting circulation, reducing swelling, and enhancing tissue recovery. Your surgeon will guide you on when to start massaging and the specific techniques to use for the best outcome based on your unique situation.
Remember to follow your surgeon’s instructions closely to ensure a safe and effective recovery process.
